Some time ago nearly all service stations, hardware shops & caravan parks would refill them but it does take wages for staff to do it so no wonder if they do stop doing it.
I know at a service station in Kingston sometimes you have to wait for some time if the counter is busy.....
I doubt it would be a law but you never know?

Most re fillers check the bottle date, our bottles are Manchester & a different shape so swap & go is no good to us.

Do a search for BCF on your GPS. They are not always the cheapest, but are always available as a service to their loyal fans.

Supercrap exchange, but do they refill - maybe, but don't think so.
